the voice isnt always the biggest thing for music. neil young (probably a misspelling) had a horrible voice. he was awesome on his guitar though, so he made it. and your singing isnt that bad. but your strengths truely are your instrument playing. your being a one man band. thats pretty good. and you are actually playing all the instruments. you are very, very skilled.

i dont complement, i only tell it as i see it. my voice is quite horrid, but i hope that one day i will be good enough at an instrument to make it sing for me, like you are able to do through your instruments.

i agree with kad, singing isn't the biggest thing in music, i didn't mean to offend you andy, sorry if i did, and dont listen to me anyway i haven't got a clue about singing, and your singing definatly IS NOT CRAP, belive me you should hear my sister, just thinking about it gives me a headache, i was trying to help you improve some more, and i think kad made an understatement when he said your very, very skilled, your not just skilled your gifted, like a marvellous amazing power that only superman has, but a real one, you've got to keep at it and wait for some people to start a fight over who pays you most money for your powers.
I can only just play guitar, you can play guitar like a god, drums like they're coming out of a machine only better, and then compose your own songs yourself, its amazing, the only person i know who has come close to that with moonlight shadow is Mike Oldfield and even he had some lady singing, sorry for such a long post i just wanted you to know how gifted you are. keep it up!!!

the sixpence is easy to play with, you get a nice chug and clanging sound when riffing, but they are no good for fast playing as they are not as accurate and have no play in them (they dont bend) i use to break alot more strings playing with coins too, i only ever tried six pences as other are too big, a 5p is a good replacement for one tho but not quite as good.
i typed zippysmarmite into google and google video and nothing came up, do you have a link for it?
yes im using magix, it has alot of floors but it uses direct wav instead of asio unlike nuendo and cubase so i find it eaiser to use, but maybe im just using nuendo wrong but i gave up on that. I like to get an idea down as quick as possible and magix lets me do that, nuendo probibly lets me do that too but it will take too much time to learn.
